Angus keepers save stag from peat bog

Gamekeepers in the Angus glens have hauled a young stag out of a bog on a shoot day. The three keepers found the beast bogged down in peat hag and set about rescuing him. After much heaving they were able to get the stag free and, after the exhausted animal took a brief rest, it ran off apparently unharmed.
